⒈Do not drink up the tea at once
Tea is not plain water, it can nourish (养育,抚养) your mind and keep you calm. If you're not thirsty, then do not drink up the tea at once. On the one hand, it may be hot and bums your lips. On the other hand, it is generally considered a rude behavior. You should take a sip and appreciate the flavor, from good smell to sweetness till the long after taste, you may find words are too plain to describe this fascinating feeling and process.
⒉Do not spit the tea out of your mouth
It is also considered that the biggest impoliteness of the guest is to spit the tea out of mouth, especially, in front of the tea server. This bad manner may also leave a very bad impression on the host.
⒊Do not smoke
Smoking cigarettes during the tea drinking is disrespectful. If you are a heavy smoker, you should ask the host for opinions. You should not start smoking unless the host or the hostess allows you to.
⒋Do not be absent-minded
Keep calm and relaxed when drinking tea, instead of being absent-minded and dispirited. Tea is not only an amazing drink, it can also be your friend. When you feel uneasy, it helps you calm down; when you feel distracted, it makes you relax; while when you find your inner peace, it will bring you indescribable flavor. What a wonderful friend!
